Lenovo Launches 15th-Anniversary ThinkPad

by Evan Shamoon on September 5, 2007 at 09:00 AM



While it may not exactly induce the fanboyicide commonly observed in so many Apple owners, IBM's ThinkPad has always had a good rep – they're solid machines with innovative ideas. Remember the TrackPoint pointing device? How about the ThinkLight (that LED keyboard light at the top of the LCD screen). Both ThinkPad firsts, as the squishy grammar might imply.

Oh, and they won't break the bank. Until now.

Lenovo, which bought IBM's PC division in 2005, is celebrating the 15th anniversary of the device with the ThinkPad Reserve Edition notebook, which launched today. The hand-stitched, saddle-grade, premium French leather-encased laptop just screams "I make money with my computer."

Each ThinkPad is individually numbered and comes with live, round-the-clock executive-class service and support. We'd call it the first-class flight of laptops, but then they'd totally attribute that quote to us in their promo materials.

It'll cost you $5,000, but when you're handling many millions...aren't you worth it?

Quick, answer before your manager/wife does.
